“The regular and student members are eligible to vote for members of the Board and amendments to TOS'S By-Laws.”
“Each member of the Council will be provided a copy of this Form 990 and will have sufficient time to review and offer any changes.”
“Each Council member shall annually sign a statement which affirms that such Councillor has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy, has read and understands the policy, has agreed to comply with the policy, has disclosed all disclosable interest existing on or before the date of the statement, and understands that TOS is a charitable organization and that in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes.”
“A published salary survey of Washington, DC area non-profit organizations was obtained, and a spreadsheet comparing compensation for equivalent Executive Director duties at TOS with comparably sized organizations was prepared when the compensation of the Executive Director was originally established. At that time, the results were reviewed by the president on behalf of the Council.”
“Copies of all Forms 990 that have been filed, the annual audited financial statements and other governing policies are kept in TOS's office and are available for review upon request.”

“The society is a nonprofit entity and is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. Therefore, contributions to the society are tax deductible under section 170 of the internal revenue code. The society files an irs form 990-t to report all unrelated business income annually. The society's unrelated business income arises from the sale of advertising in the society's magazine. No liability related to unrelated business income tax is recorded in these financial statements as management believes no such material liability exists. The society is not classified as a private foundation by the internal revenue service. The society adopted the recommendations of the financial accounting standards board (fasb) in its accounting standards codification (asc) for accounting of uncertainty in income taxes without any material effect to the financial statements. These recommendations clarify the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes by prescribing the recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. They also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The society has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the internal revenue service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. Management believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse affect on the society's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the society has not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at september 30, 2017.with few exceptions, the society is no longer subject to u.s. Federal, state or local tax examinations by tax authorities for years beginning before october 1, 2013.”
